Holy crap, I think Alien: Covenant is still the last film I've seen. You have to fix that, LT. Many worthier movies you need to get in. Agreed. I have a lot of discs piled up I'm eager to get to (whether or not the prove worth it in the end of course remains to be seen): F. W. Murnau's Nosferatu , ...

Unimpressed. I liked the short teaser better than the long teaser. I really didn't like the long teaser, or, I suppose they're calling it "the trailer." Probably only trailer, in my estimation. I don't like the look of the actor playing Han Solo. Ah, yes: Sham Faux-lo. But it it just me, or is Maz ...

Has anyone of you gotten this book? I have. But I've scarcely cracked the covers because I've yet to see The Last Jedi . Waiting now for the disc, hoping to avoid major spoilers--well, anymore: I've seen a couple of things that I assume are spoilers, but which, in isolation, a) don't make a lot of ...

I read the first TPB of the latest Marvel Darth Vader series, after Amazon finally coughed up my pre-order copy a week or so ago. What was the title, of the arc, at least? "Imperial Machine"? It was...so-so. I found the idea that a red-bladed Sith lightsaber was the product of making a regular saber...

The Last (recent) program I watched was last Friday's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. , which has surprised me this season by not stinking--in contradistinction to "Season 11" of The X-Files , which has been little more than the tedium of raspy-voiced Gillian Anderson and stubbly Duchovny going thro...

Tons of fun to unpack here! Seriously? Or am I losing my sense of sarcasm? I'm stoked for Finn v. Phasma. I hope that fight is given time to play out. Why? What significance does either of them have? To me, it's like Sy Snootles vs. Salacious Crumb. I hope that little porg in the Falcon lives, and ...

JJ Abrams to direct Episode IX SIGH. http://variety.com/2017/film/news/j-j-abrams-star-wars-episode-ix-director-colin-trevorrow-1202548094/ Well, we knew it was going to be bad, didn't we? Now we know how bad, and how much to lower our expectations. Now, if you'll pardon me, I don't have a basement...

I'm waiting to find out the Porg's twist. Everyone thinks of Ewoks as cute but they are vicious. Ewoks had planned to cook and eat Han, Luke and Chewie. I like Ewoks. Porgs look cute and sound a little like turkeys mixed with penguins. Ewoks aren't vicious, they're evil[/i. Between them, those self...

Porgs are God's gift to Humanity. The only pure and positive light in an otherwise dark and horrifying world. Don't tell me. Let me guess. You're being held at Skywalker Ranch and they're forcing you to post that, right? Or your account has been hacked, right? RIght? The entire universe can't have ...

And I'm sure even more people will be happy about this! :laugh: I find it difficult to be happy about the sequel trilogy right now because...Porgs. Look like the inbred offspring of Ewoks and penguins. Do we have a "shoot me now" smiley? I can't even find a chin-scratch smiley. :( Oh come on, the P...

So we get another Ep 6 from JJ. Who do they put in the metal bikini? Rey or Finn? :wink: If it's anyone but Rey, and I don't get wind of it ahead of time, I'm bolting from the theater. Frankly, though Daisy Ridley's a pretty girl, I'm not sure she's right for the metal bikini. Horrible thought: Wit...

I reread [iAshenden][/i] by W. Somerset Maugham. Hundred-year-old spy stories. I gather there were more, but Maugham was convinced not to publish/destroy them, the implication being that his intelligence service during World War I was not sufficiently fictionalized in them. Probably be pretty intere...

Could be, but I thought Disney decided to trash all of Lucas's ideas about the ST and go their own way. They can't completely scrap his ideas, since I would imagine, no matter whether they were worth anything or not, they were rooted in existing saga, which is going to push matters along a given pa...

The OS has announced that Colin Trevorrow is no longer directing Ep 9. The Hollywood Reporter is reporting he clashed with Kathleen Kennedy over the script. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/colin-trevorrow-as-director-star-wars-episode-ix-1035463 And I'm sure even more people will be ha...
